I like the basic idea. It really does sound a little like my brother and I (except I've never tried to make him wear a dress or play Barbie with me). We aren't THAT extreme, but we do argue a lot.
Anyway, like I said, I do like the basic idea. The story itself needs work. There's some major editing needed, but I'll send that to you in a message.

As far as style goes...I'm not going to try to correct that, because everyone has a personal style. But the story seems to skip through important scenes. I understand that you want to get to the good part (I do that, too), but try to slow down and describe things. I want to really feel like I'm with them instead of just reading about them. For example, the reader knows nothing about the funeral. Try making that an actual scene rather than just mentioning it. Tell how the characters interact with each other, how Dimitri feels, etc. The only real interaction in the story is between him and Kelly, like they're the only two characters. Bring the parents, at least, into the story. The way that characters interact with each other tells the reader a lot about them. It makes them more real, rather than just names on a page.
But keep working on it. I think it has real potention to be a great story. I'd love to see how it turns out.
